GARLIC SHRIMP WITH WHITE BEANS AND TOMATOES

I saw this high-protein recipe on Runner's Word but I decided to personalize it a little (less shrimp/more beans and LESS olive oil-you don't really need 4 tbsp!). Plus, the way they explain it is confusing and it says it is for 4 people when I can barely share it with my BF! It's really delicious, you should try it! ENJOY!

INGREDIENTS:
8 oz medium peeled and deveined shrimp
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3 garlic cloves, minced and divided
1 bay leaf, broken into pieces
2 ounces (50gr) cherry tomatoes
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1cup white beans, drained
1 cup vegetable broth
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

DIRECTIONS:
Heat a large skillet over medium-high
Toss shrimp with 1 tablespoon oil
Add shrimp to skillet
Sauté 1 to 2 minutes
Add half the garlic the last few seconds of cooking
Spoon shrimp into a bowl and set aside
Return skillet to heat
Add second tablespoon oil, bay leaf, and remaining garlic
Cook till garlic is golden, a few seconds
Add tomatoes
Cook till most of the liquid evaporates, 2 minutes
Add tomato paste
Cook till tomato mixture darkens
Add beans and broth
Simmer till it's a thick stew, 5 minutes
Stir in shrimp and parsley
Add corn starch and wisk
Cook till heated through
Serves 2

I also add brown rice to it because I couldn't get full otherwise :wink: (1/4 cup dry- 140 cal)
